Girlfriend

you wore large hoop earrings and platform shoes plaid gouchoes a white shirt with a butterfly collar standing at the corner sucking on a lollipop you bought at the candy lady in the hood, it's all good 'singing we are family' the girls were blood sisters with a bad attitude about life and candy doll shoes you wore twisted braids hair lightly pressed with a long bang baby hair neatly meshed girls hung out speaking of good old times dreaming of boyfriends on the corner singing old school rhymes boy playing a boom box playing Shaka conn rhymes I'm feeling you, cause I love you' the poetry echoes in the girl's minds Luther Vandross reminds me of the very first time the first boy I kissed how he held me in his arm I reminisce, our lips pressed how he touched my heart I fell in love
